​​"200hr YTT changed everything!! I am so happy I decided to sign up for this teacher training. It’s taught me so much more than the physical aspect of yoga - it goes beyond the postures & gives you just enough information on anatomy, philosophy, & the ethics that go into being a successful instructor. Even if you have no intentions of being a yoga teacher, this program gives you such a deeper understanding for your personal practice. The emotional & personal growth that I’ve experienced in four months has been life changing. This journey is something I will reflect on for a lifetime & for that I’m forever grateful!"

"Yoga Simplified/KP Yoga Method has put together an amazing 200hr YTT program. Kaitlyn VanderMeer & Desiree Crossman are a great team. Desiree is a wealth of knowledge. She is so well rounded & humble. I felt at ease going thru this process with her as the lead. Kaitlyn is an amazing human who is kind & inspiring. She is very precise with the posture clinics. She thoroughly explained each pose, transitions, the cueing formula, benefits, & contradictions. The set sequence they created was a well-balanced series that I will forever have in my back pocket! The training was all-encompassing. I never imagined just how deep the philosophy of yoga could be. We deep dived all of it & I loved every moment. Desiree is incredibly knowledgeable about anatomy & humanities as well! I was very much looking forward to the anatomy section. It did not disappoint. Honestly, from asana to pranayama, anatomy to subtle body movements, humanities to philosophy, ethics to studio logistics, & spirituality ... every section was thoroughly covered. It was truly a transformative experience. I am forever grateful to them both. I would suggest this training to anyone ready to start their YTT journey."
